The Woodward company is one of the oldest U.S. companies that started out providing water wheel governors and has grown to delivering control systems for reciprocating engines, gas steam engines, aircraft turbines, and aircraft actuation flight control. As these systems become more advanced, they must be regulated at higher standards. Woodward uses ZYGO’s optical metrology technologies to advance their materials inspection.

Celebrating their 50-year anniversary as a company that offers precision optics and optical metrology technologies, ZYGO is excited to present once again at Photonics West 2020. Check out the video to see their featured products, including optical profilers, and learn more about their precision optics manufacturing capabilities.

ZYGO is focused on bringing solutions centered around precision optical components, extreme precision optical components, and optical assembly services. With abilities to work on a build-to-print basis or build a design from scratch through to volume production, ZYGO offers in-process quality assurance to make sure end product meets or exceeds the customer's specifications.

ZYGO's surface measurement technology is further enhanced with vibration-tolerant SureScan™ technology, which enables users to locate the ZeGage system anywhere in your manufacturing facility without the need for bulky and expensive vibration isolation systems.

At Zygo’s booth on the first day of Photonics West 2019, Erin McDonnell delves into the topic of challenges and considerations to be considered in the precise metrology of plain parallel optics and thin glass optics. Check out the video for solutions on these challenges including a short coherence measurement method and a wavelength tuning method.
